New 'World War Z' Clip Features Serious Zombie-Escaping Action

"World War Z" is almost upon us, and the latest clip launches us right into the middle of the action.

The following teaser gives us a closer look at an early scene in the movie in which Gerry Lane (Brad Pitt) and his wife Karin (Mireille Enos) flee their apartment with their two daughters. There's a helicopter headed their way, but first Gerry and his family have to outrun the ambulatory undead quickly shuffling after them. Although no one says the z-word in the preview, it's clear the creatures in hot pursuit are definitely not normal.

Despite all the behind-the-scenes chatter about last-minute problems with the film, it's been getting solid early reviews from critics in the United States and the UK. Super-fans in select cities can also purchase a $50 "Mega Ticket" that comes with a few extra goodies, including a digital download or stream of "World War Z" once it comes out on DVD and Blu-ray. With this deal available in only five U.S. theaters, it appears Paramount is testing the waters for future "Mega Ticket" offers.
